A suitable atmosphere can be created.

  Hereinafter, a light bulb type fluorescent lamp according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(First embodiment)
As shown in FIG. 1, the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 according to the present embodiment includes a base 1, a main body 2, and fluorescent lamps 4 and 5.

  The base 1 is attached to a socket for attaching a light bulb, and connects the main body 2 to a commercial power source or the like.

  The main body 2 converts the power supplied via the base 1 into high-frequency power and supplies it to the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. The main body 2 includes a filter circuit 11, a rectifier circuit 12, a smoothing circuit 13, and inverter circuits 14 and 15.

  The filter circuit 11 attenuates a noise component included in the AC voltage applied via the base 1.

  The rectifier circuit 12 converts the AC voltage into a pulsating current and transmits the pulsating current to the smoothing circuit 13.

  The smoothing circuit 13 smoothes the pulsating flow rectified by the rectifying circuit 12 and applies it to the inverter circuits 14 and 15.

  The inverter circuits 14 and 15 respectively turn on the DC voltage from the smoothing circuit 13 by converting it into a high frequency voltage and applying it to the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5.

  The control circuit 16 controls the power supplied to the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 by the inverter circuits 14 and 15.

Next, details of the control circuit 16 will be described.
As illustrated in FIG. 2, the control circuit 16 includes a microprocessor 161, a status memory 162, a sequence memory 163, and a power detection unit 164.

Based on the output voltage of the rectifier circuit 12, the power detection unit 164 determines whether or not power is supplied and whether or not the time from power supply stop to resupply is within a predetermined time (for example, 0.2 seconds to 3 seconds). The detection signal is output to the microprocessor 161.
The status memory 162 stores status information indicating the lighting state of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. The sequence memory 163 stores a sequence indicating how the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are turned on / off. In this embodiment, the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are turned off → all turned on (both fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are turned on) → dimming lighting 1 (fluorescent lamp 4 is turned on and fluorescent lamp 5 is turned off) → dimming lighting 2 ( It is assumed that a sequence for transitioning off the fluorescent lamp 4 and turning on the fluorescent lamp 5) → switching off → all lighting →.

  In response to the detection signal from the power detection unit 164, the microprocessor 161 updates the current lighting state stored in the status memory 162 according to the lighting sequence stored in the sequence memory 163. Specifically, when the detection signal indicates that the time from the stop of power supply to the resupply is within a predetermined time, the microprocessor 161 displays the status stored in the status memory 162 as the sequence memory. Only one transition is made in the order of all lighting → dimming lighting 1 → dimming lighting 2 → dark lighting → all lighting →. On the other hand, when the detection signal indicates that the time from the stop of power supply to the resupply is equal to or longer than a predetermined time, the microprocessor 161 sets the status stored in the status memory 162 to the all-on state that is the initial state. Update the status to indicate.

  The fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 shown in FIG. 1 are made up of fluorescent lamps having different emission colors, for example, fluorescent lamps 4 that emit blue light and fluorescent lamps 5 that emit red-violet light. In this case, if only the fluorescent lamp 4 is lit and the blue color is emitted, a cool and refreshing atmosphere can be produced. If only the fluorescent lamp 5 is lit and the magenta color is emitted, a passionate and individual atmosphere is created. Can produce. When both the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are turned on and the light emission color is mixed to emit a purple color, a noble and unique atmosphere is produced.

  As shown in FIGS. 3A to 3C, the globe 3 covers the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 and diffuses light emitted from the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5.

The operation of the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 having the above configuration will be described.
When the base 1 is attached to the socket and the external switch is turned on, commercial power is supplied to the main body 2.

The power detection unit 164 of the control unit 16 determines whether or not the time from the stop of power supply to the restart is within a predetermined time, and supplies a determination signal to the microprocessor 161.
In response to the determination signal from the power detection unit 164, the microprocessor 161 stores the status stored in the status memory 162 in the sequence memory 163 when the time from the stop of power supply to the restart is within a predetermined time. In accordance with the sequence, the status is updated to the next status (for example, if the previous status is all lit, dimming 1 is turned on, and if the previous status is dimmed 2), the status is updated. The status stored in the status memory 162 is updated to the initial value (all lighting).

  The microprocessor 161 controls the inverter circuits 14 and 15 according to the status stored in the status memory 162 to supply power to the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. For example, if the status is “all lit”, the inverter circuits 14 and 15 are activated, power is supplied to the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5, and both the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are lit. If the status is “dimming lighting 1”, the inverter circuit 14 is activated, power is supplied to the fluorescent lamp 4, and the fluorescent lamp 4 is turned on. If the status is “dimming lighting 2”, the inverter circuit 15 is activated to supply power to the fluorescent lamp 5 and the fluorescent lamp 5 is lit. For example, if the status is “off”, the inverter circuits 14 and 15 are stopped and both the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are turned off.

  When the dimming lamp 1 turns on the fluorescent lamp 4 and emits a blue color, a cool and refreshing atmosphere is produced. With the dimming lamp 2, the fluorescent lamp 5 lights up and emits a magenta color. A passionate and individual atmosphere is produced, and when both the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are lit with all lighting, the light emission colors are mixed, and when a purple color is emitted, a noble and individual atmosphere is produced.

  As described above, the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 can turn on various colors by controlling the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 that emit different colors and the lighting state of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. Therefore, by lighting with the color according to the place and situation where the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is installed, an atmosphere suitable for the place and situation can be created.

  In addition, in order to equalize the brightness of lighting in all lighting, dimming lighting 1, and dimming lighting 2, in all lighting, the output of inverter circuits 14 and 15 is set to 50% of the rating, and in dimming lighting 1, The output of the inverter circuit 14 may be set to 100% of the rating, and the dimming lighting 2 may be adjusted so that the output of the inverter circuit 15 is set to 100% of the rating.

  In the above description, four examples of control performed by the control circuit 16 are shown: full lighting, dimming lighting 1 (only the fluorescent lamp 4 is lit), dimming lighting 2 (only the fluorescent lamp 5 is lit), and extinguishing. The state is arbitrary. For example, a lighting state in which the dimming lighting 3 (20% lighting of the fluorescent lamp 4 and 80% lighting of the fluorescent lamp 5) and the dimming lighting 4 (50% lighting of the fluorescent lamp 4 and 50% lighting of the fluorescent lamp 5) are changed. It can be arbitrarily set such as to be in one state. In addition, 50% lighting and 80% lighting are the ratios of brightness with respect to the brightness when normal lighting is 100%.

(Second Embodiment)
In the first embodiment, when both the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 emit light (purple), the power consumption is large, the light bulb type fluorescent lamp 10 is brightest, and one of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 is When it is emitting light (blue or reddish purple), the power consumption is halved and darkens accordingly. Therefore, in order to make the brightness for each lighting color constant, the control circuit 16 may control the total power consumed by the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 to be constant.

  In this case, in the sequence memory 163 of the control circuit 16 shown in FIG. 2, for example, the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are turned off → two lamps are turned on (both fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are turned on at 50%) → the dimming light 1 (Fluorescent lamp 4 is turned on 70%, fluorescent lamp 5 is turned on 30%) → Dimming lighting 2 (fluorescent lamp 4 is turned on, fluorescent lamp 5 is turned off) → Dimming lighting 3 (fluorescent lamp 4 is turned on 30%, fluorescence The sequence of transition is made as follows: lamp 5 is turned on 70%) dimming light 4 (fluorescent lamp 4 is turned off, fluorescent lamp 5 is turned on) → off → all turned on →.

  As in the first embodiment, the microprocessor 161 updates the status information stored in the status memory 162 in response to the detection signal supplied from the power detection unit 164, and the updated status information indicates The inverter circuits 14 and 15 are controlled so as to be in the lighting state.

  According to this configuration, by controlling so that the total power supplied to the plurality of fluorescent lamps is equal, even if the lighting color of the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is different, it can be controlled to be lit at a constant brightness. .

  In addition, considering the sensitivity to human colors, the outputs of the inverter circuits 14 and 15 are adjusted according to the status so that the brightness perceived by the user (human) is constant regardless of the status change. Also good.

(Third embodiment)
In the above embodiment, the user controls the lighting state by operating a switch that controls the power supply to the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10, but for example, an operation unit or the like can be provided to control the color to be lit. You may do it.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 according to the third embodiment includes an operation unit 31 in the main body 2 of the embodiment. The control circuit 16 further includes a color / power ratio correspondence table 165 as shown in FIG.

  The operation unit 31 includes, for example, an operation knob provided on the main body 2, a button, a switch, and the like. The operation unit 31 designates a color with which the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit, and determines the amount of power supplied to each fluorescent lamp. specify.

  The color / power ratio correspondence table 165 is a table that stores, as information, power amounts and / or ratios supplied to a plurality of mixed fluorescent lamps in order to obtain a lighting color of a specified bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10. When a lighting color control signal is received from the microprocessor 161, information on the amount of power and / or the ratio of light emitted from each fluorescent lamp corresponding to the lighting color is returned.

  For example, in the method of designating a color with the operation unit 31, the operation unit 31 is blue (fluorescent lamp 4 is turned on and fluorescent lamp 5 is turned off), intermediate color 1 (fluorescent lamp 4 is turned on 70%, fluorescent lamp 5 is turned on 30). % Lit), purple (fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 are both 50% lit), intermediate color 2 (fluorescent lamp 4 is lit 30%, fluorescent lamp 5 is lit 70%), magenta (fluorescent lamp 4 is extinguished, fluorescent lamp 5 The color / power ratio correspondence table 165 has information corresponding to the switches. When supplied with power, the operation unit 31 outputs a control signal of the designated color to the microprocessor 161 of the control circuit 16.

  The microprocessor 161 outputs the control signal of the lighting color input from the operation unit 31 to the color / power ratio correspondence table 165, and as a response, the fluorescent lamps 4, 5 for lighting the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 with the specified color. The information on the amount of power and / or the ratio of emitting light is received. The microprocessor 161 controls the inverter circuits 14 and 15 based on the response information, and turns on the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5.

  For example, in the case of a method in which the amount of power supplied to each fluorescent lamp is specified by the operation unit 31, the operation unit 31 is a switch (100%, 70%, 50%, 30%, 0) that controls the lighting state of the fluorescent lamp 4. %) And a switch (100%, 70%, 50%, 30%, 0% lighting) for controlling the lighting state of the fluorescent lamp 5, and when power is supplied, The control signal is output to the microprocessor 161 of the control circuit 16.

  The microprocessor 161 controls the inverter circuits 14 and 15 based on the control signal input from the operation unit 31 to turn on the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 with the respective electric energy and / or ratio.

  The color specified by the operation unit 31 or the power amount and / or ratio of each fluorescent lamp may be set as one lighting state and assigned as one of the transition states stored in the sequence memory 163.

  When the user can specify the lighting color by operating the operation unit 31, the light bulb type fluorescent lamp 10 can be lit in a favorite color without requiring fine setting. In addition, when the user can specify the amount of power and / or the ratio supplied to the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 by operating the operation unit 31, it is possible to select a desired color mixture and turn it on in a combination of fine steps.

(Fourth embodiment)
In the above embodiment, the user controls the lighting state by operating the switch for controlling the power supply to the light bulb type fluorescent lamp 10 and the operation unit 31. However, the user can control the lighting state with a remote control device or the like, for example. You may do it.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the light bulb type fluorescent lamp 10 according to the fourth embodiment includes a signal receiving unit 17 in addition to the main body 2 of the embodiment, and includes a remote control device 30 separately from the main body 2.

  The remote control device 30 includes a remote control operation unit operated by a user, a signal generation unit that generates a control signal of the operation content of the remote control operation unit, and a transmission unit that transmits the control signal to the signal reception unit 17 of the main body 2 by infrared rays. . In addition to being directly controlled by the user, the remote control operation unit may be connected to a sound sensor, a human sensor, or the like, and transmit the operation content according to the detection result of the sensor to the signal generation unit.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the signal receiving unit 17 receives a control signal transmitted by infrared rays from the remote control device 30, converts it into an electrical signal, and outputs it to the microprocessor 161 of the control circuit 16. As shown in FIG. 8, the signal receiving unit 17 is installed on the same surface as the surface to which the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 of the main body 2 are connected.

  The lighting sequence stored in the sequence memory 163 shown in FIG. 7 may store a large number of lighting states in which the ratio of the colors emitted by the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 is changed little by little.

  The control signal received by the signal receiving unit 17 may be configured to instruct to i) transition to the next lighting state according to the sequence stored in the sequence memory 163, or ii) the type of the control signal May be configured to instruct the transition to the lighting state according to the type of the control signal, or iii) the lighting color registered in the color / power ratio correspondence table 165 may be specified. Alternatively, or iv) it may be configured to specify the amount and / or ratio of power supplied to each fluorescent lamp 4, 5.

  For example, the control signal received by the signal receiving unit 17 may be a signal that varies depending on music output by the audio device or information detected by various sensors. The lighting state of the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 can be changed in accordance with the rhythm of the music output from the audio device, and an atmosphere suitable for the music can be produced. Moreover, according to the movement of the person detected by the sensor, the lighting state of the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 can be changed to produce an atmosphere suitable for the movement of the person.

  As described above, the lighting state of the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 can be controlled by the control signal transmitted by the remote control device or the infrared transmission device. Therefore, a suitable atmosphere can be created by lighting in a color according to the place and situation where the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is installed.

  In the above-described embodiment, the signal receiving unit 17 has been described as configured to receive infrared rays. However, the control unit receives a control signal such as PLC (Power Line Communication) or PLT (Power Line Telecommuication) and receives the received control signal. The signal may be output to the microprocessor 161 of the control circuit 16. In that case, the signal receiving unit 17 may be provided inside the main body 2 or the like.

(Fifth embodiment)
As shown in FIG. 9, the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 according to the fifth embodiment includes a timer 19 in addition to the fourth embodiment, and the two fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 each have a warm color system. Emits cold colors. The control circuit 16 controls the lighting of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 based on the time information from the timer 19.

  The timer 19 measures time and outputs time information to the microprocessor 161 of the control circuit 16. In that case, not only the time but also the information such as the date may be output.

  The fluorescent lamp 4 is a fluorescent lamp that emits a cold color such as daylight color or day white color, and is turned on, off, or dimmed by the inverter circuit 14. The fluorescent lamp 5 emits a warm color such as warm white, and is turned on, turned off, and dimmed by the inverter circuit 15.

  The microprocessor 161 of the control circuit 16 receives the time information from the timer 19 and controls the lighting state of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 so as to emit a color corresponding to the time. The microprocessor 161 strongly lights the brightness of the cold-colored fluorescent lamp 4 during the day, and strongly lights the brightness of the warm-colored fluorescent lamp 5 from the evening to the dawn.

  For example, the control circuit 16 changes the light emission rate of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 in accordance with the human life rhythm of starting activities when the sun rises and resting at night. Change the illuminance and color temperature. When the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is turned on during the day, the brightness of the cold-color fluorescent lamp 4 is increased to make the person active and create an environment suitable for work and study. When the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit from the evening to the dawn, the brightness of the warm-colored fluorescent lamp 5 is increased, the mind and body are relaxed, and peace is produced. The control circuit 16 may change the ratio of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5 that emits light in accordance with the date of use. However, the control circuit 16 takes into account the Kruzov effect established between the illuminance and the color temperature, and sets the color and brightness to emit light by the combination of the illuminance and the color temperature that gives a comfortable feeling.

  In particular, when a general light bulb type fluorescent lamp is installed in a toilet, there is a possibility that the person wakes up in the middle of the daylight in the middle of the night and falls asleep, and the life rhythm is crazy. However, when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is installed in a toilet, it is exposed to light of a warm color with a low color temperature, so that there is a low possibility that the life rhythm will be crazy.

  As described above, the light bulb type fluorescent lamp 10 including the cold-color fluorescent lamp 4, the warm-color fluorescent lamp 5 and the timer 19 can be lit with a color having a color temperature suitable for the life rhythm. That is, by changing the light emitted from the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 at the same timing as that of sunlight, it is possible to make the user have the same situation and atmosphere as when living under sunlight. By taking light that changes at the same timing as sunlight, there is an effect of keeping the user's sense of time normal.

  As described above, the lighting state is not limited to the case where the timer 19 is provided as a sensor, but is detected depending on the detection results of one or more sensors using sensors such as a thermometer, hygrometer, illuminance meter, and volume meter. May be controlled.

(thermometer)
For example, a thermometer may be provided in place of the timer 19 of the fifth embodiment. Based on the temperature information detected by the thermometer, the control circuit 16 controls the light emission of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. When the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the temperature is low, the brightness of the cold-type fluorescent lamp 4 is increased, and when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the temperature is high, the brightness of the warm-color fluorescent lamp 5 By strengthening, it is possible to visually recognize the temperature and to create an atmosphere according to the temperature. Furthermore, it is possible to visually recognize whether the room is too warm or too cold by an air conditioner or the like, which has an effect of encouraging the user to save energy.

  Further, when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is turned on when the temperature is low, the brightness of the warm-type fluorescent lamp 5 is increased, and when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is turned on when the temperature is high, the cold-type fluorescent lamp 4 By increasing the brightness, the temperature can be visually illusioned. Even when the room temperature is somewhat hot or cold, there is an effect of prompting the user to refrain from using the air conditioner and promoting energy saving.

(Hygrometer)
For example, a hygrometer may be provided as a substitute for the timer 19 of the fifth embodiment. Based on the humidity information detected by the hygrometer, the control circuit 16 controls the light emission of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. When the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the humidity is low, the brightness of the cold-color fluorescent lamp 4 is increased. When the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the humidity is high, the brightness of the warm-color fluorescent lamp 5 is increased. By strengthening, it is possible to visually recognize the humidity. An air conditioner or the like can visually recognize whether the room is too dry or too humid, and can create an atmosphere corresponding to the humidity.

  Further, when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is turned on when the humidity is low, the brightness of the warm-type fluorescent lamp 5 is increased, and when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is turned on when the humidity is high, the cold-type fluorescent lamp 4 By increasing the brightness, the illusion of humidity can be made visually. Even when the humidity in the room is somewhat high or low, there is an effect of prompting the user to refrain from using the air conditioner and promoting energy saving.

(Illuminance meter)
For example, an illuminometer may be provided instead of the timer 19 of the fifth embodiment. Based on the illuminance information detected by the illuminometer, the control circuit 16 controls the light emission of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. When the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the surroundings are bright, the brightness of the cold-colored fluorescent lamp 4 is increased, and when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the surroundings are dark, the brightness of the warm-colored fluorescent lamp 5 By strengthening, it is possible to visually recognize the brightness of the surroundings and to create an atmosphere according to the brightness of the surroundings.

(Volume meter)
For example, a volume meter may be provided as a substitute for the timer 19 of the fifth embodiment. Based on the volume information detected by the volume meter, the control circuit 16 controls the light emission of the fluorescent lamps 4 and 5. When the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the surroundings are quiet, the brightness of the cold-colored fluorescent lamp 4 is increased to create a calm atmosphere, and when the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is lit when the surroundings are noisy, By increasing the brightness of the fluorescent lamp 5 to an active atmosphere, the color of the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is changed according to the volume. By changing the lighting color of the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 according to the volume, it is possible to create an atmosphere suitable for the place and situation where the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is installed. Moreover, it is good also as information for measuring the frequency of a sound and controlling it together with a volume.

(Combination of sensors)
For example, in a bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 including a timer 19 and a thermometer, a hygrometer, or the like, the brightness or color lighting state is changed based on detection results such as temperature and humidity other than time, It can be turned on with different brightness and color depending on the pattern. For example, in the light bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 including the illuminance meter and the volume meter, the intensity and color of the lighting brightness may be changed according to the detection result of the volume meter according to the brightness of the room.

  By controlling the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 according to the detection results of various sensors and the detection results of a plurality of sensors, an atmosphere suitable for the place and situation where the bulb-type fluorescent lamp 10 is installed can be created. it can.

  In addition, although the lightbulb type fluorescent lamp 10 provided with the two fluorescent lamps from which the light emission color differs was demonstrated, not only two but three or more may be sufficient. In that case, it can be lit in various colors.

  In addition, the above-described hardware configuration is an example, and can be arbitrarily changed and modified.
